I admire that you put yourself in dangers way for what you think was right.

However it is really disingenuous to try frame a global conflict between super powers in terms of personal responsibility. Your prescription is in the same vein as saying those worried about climate change should recycle more, when it is clear their utmost efforts would not make a dent in the global scheme of things. As such, no amount of motivated militia is going to make a dent in a war against an industrialized military.

Just come out and say I don't want to pay for to support Ukraine's war against Russia. Your opinion is valid and should be taken into account. However you don't get to dodge your responsibilities if the outcome doesn't go your way, just like a Democrat has to live with Trump's policies whether they like it or not. It's pathetic to try garnering sympathy with cage analogies.

It's not an analogy, it is a direct fact. Willfully underpayment of taxes can be punished with being tossed in a cage, enforced by armed agents.

This should be first, front, and center concern before that gun is pointed at Americans trying to get by.

Awesome, then I have no personal responsibility to fund it. We're all happy then.
